BASE BALL.
What Was Done Last Week by the Boys.
As the base ball season draws TO O
close the interest In the National and
Northwestern league contests becomes
more intense owing to the extreme
closeness Of the race in these organiza-
tions. There is no change Of positions
to record In the National league from
the weeks play, although 1t looked at
one time rs II New York would retake
the third place from Philadelphia.
In fact the Giants were third during
Wednesday aud Thursday. but the
success of Philadelphia at Indianapo.
lis reinstated them in the position oc.
cupied at the beginning Of the week.
Detroit opened the week with Boston
winning two out Of three games, ana
closed with Washington taking three
straight. The Michiganders have
now opened gap of ten won games
between them aud the Chicagos,
which at this stage of the contest vir.
tually assures them the pennant. Ad.
mitting that Chicago will win two.
thirds of the twenty-five games yet to
play, which is better than the seasons
average, Detroit would only have 10 win
five of the seventeen vet 10 play In
order to keep at the top, while the in.
dications are that they will win at
leas. twelve. Chicago is however
playing ball from the woid go, and
will not allow the Detroits to LEI up on
the pace. Last week they had an un.
deniably hard week. having 10 meet
Philadelphia and New York, ard con.
trary 10 all expectation they succeeded
in taking three straight from the
Phillies, won and lost one. to New
York. and played them one tie of ten
inning, closed by darkness. This in.
dicstes that Anson's boys propose to
be In at the finish, and If they can't
have first place, they will be as near II
as possible, and certainly q good sec.

This weeks schedule gives Milwau-
kee five gaues with ST. Paul and one
with Minneapolis. Oshkosh has one
with st. Paul, three with Minneapolis
and one with Duluth. Des Moines
has one with Minneapolis and three
with Duluth, while the tail enders
chaw each other up. II would not be
surprising II Oshkosh closed the W eek
"a strong first. ST. Paul has but little
chance to do better than make a
stand off. Milwaukee will probably
win four out of six, and Des Moines do
rs well.
Positions remain nearly unchanged
in the American association. The
Athletics have taKen fifth place from
Brooklyn 10y narrow margin but no
other changes are noted, nor are any
likely 10 occur. The Association
plays one hundred and forty games in
it's season and the majority of the
clubs have still twenty-five games 10
play. st. Louis has In the last two
weeks been dropping an occasional
game, possibly to keep up the interest |;
possibly because 1t couldn't be helped.
With u clear lead Of 10 games they are,
perfectly safe. Cincinnati has in
creased its hold on second place, Louis
willie is about the same in third, and
Baltimore not as good fourth as last
week. The record Ia as follows.

This week Detroit plays Philadel-
phia and New York; Chicago plays
Boston and Pittsburg; Philadelphia
and New York play at Pittsburg and
Indianapolis and Boston have series.
Among the leaders Detroit has tn.
hardest work, although Chicago has
not this season been able to count on
being sure winner with Pittsburg.
The Smoky City boys are in pretty
good shape and Mccormick would
lose leg rather than game to Chi
csgo. Unless the unexpected happens
there will be no change in positions to
record this week.
In the Northwestern league there
has been almost daily changes among
the three leaders during the week.
On Monday Milwaukee was first, Osh.
kosh second and 81. Paul third. On
Wednesday Oshkosh went to the from,
and stayed there till Friday, when
Milwaukee took the lead with St
Paul and Oshkosh tied for second
place. Saturdays games strengthened
both Milwaukee and Oshkosh and
weakened st. Paul. so that the old po.
sitions were resumed. During tn,
week Milwaukee played four game,
with Eau Claire, winning two and
losing one, one with Duluth and two
with Minneapolis, all three Of which
went TO the credit Of the Cream City
boys. II was an easy week for them
and they should have scored sever
victories instead Of five. Oshkosh
played three games with Duluth, vim

SCIENTIFIC.

Tico gigantic engineering schemes
force themselves upon the public atten-
ton. One is the proposal to pierce a
railway tunnel through the Pyrenees,
the convention for which has just been
slgned by the French and Spanish ln-
teTnational Railway Commission. The
other scheme is for the formation of
a company to construct an interna-
tional railway connecting Europe with
Persia, India. Burmah and China. 1t
appears that Sir X. NJ Stephenson. who
has been endeavoring 10 arrange with
the Sublime Porte for the commence
ment OF the works in Turkey Tor tile
last thirty-four years, considers that
the negotiations are so far advanced as
to warrant the formation of company
to work the concession, which he be-
lieves he will eventually obtain. He
proposes to raise, for making the Asia
Minor and Persia sections, a capital OF
$50, 000, coo, in 600, 600 shares OF 800

HOUSEHOLD

TOMATO OMELET.-Put a pint OF
canned or stewed tomatoes into an
open stewpan and let simmer for half
an hour. Season with salt and pepper,
and a tablespoonful of butter. Beat
SIX eggs well and add to them level
teaspoonful of salt and three table
spoonfuls OF water. Put a generous
tablespoonful of butter into a large
omelet-pan or frying-pan, and when 1t
becomes white and frothy pour the eggs
into it. shake over a very hot fire
until the eggs begin to thicken and
look creamy; then pour in the hot to-
matoes, spreading them over the mid
die OF the omelet. Roll up quickly,
and, after browning for an instant,
turn out on a warm dish and serve i'm
mediately. Care should be taken to
have a hot fire, for without great heat
the omelet will be hard and heavy.
Oysters, cheese, chicken, ham, and,
indeed, nearly all kinds OF meat and
fish, may be used in the same way rs
tomatoes. When meat or fish IS used
il should first be heated in little
sauce. Cheese is simply grated and
sprinkled over the omelet just before
the rolling.

CUCUMBER PICKLE.-The following
is said to be a good, sweet cucumber
pickle: Peel some full-grown cucum-
bers; yellow ones will do. Halve them
down the middle, scoop out the seeds.
cut them into any fanciful pieces, cover
with good vinegar and let them stand
twenty-four hours. Then pour off the
vinegar, and to every three pints of
this put half pound of sugar, a quater
ounce of stick cinnamon, one dram OF
cloves. half dram OF grated nutmeg
and one ounce of whole ginger. Boil
the pickle ten minutes. Lay in the
cucumbers, give them one boll-up, and
take them out before they soften in
the least. Lay them in jars and pour
the pickle hot over them. In a week
or two boil the vinegar over again, and
pour it when cold over the cucumbers.

4 pIaa recently introduced into Bel.

A plan recently introduced into Bel
GUM for preserving wood from decay
produced by the atmosphere, water, etc. !,
is to ill the pores with liquid gutta-
percha, which is said to efrectually pre-
serve it from moisture and the action
o. the sun. The process employed con-
sists in exhausting the air from the
pores OF the wood, and filing with
guttapercha solution. In pouring the
solution into the pores, the solid gutta-
percha IS hquehed by mixing with
paraffine in proportion of about two
thirds Of guttapercha to one-third Of
parafine the mixture is then sub
mitted to the action OF heat and the
guttapercha becomes sufficiently liquid
to be easily introduced into the pores
of the wood. The guttapeTcha liquefed
by this process hardens In the pores of
the wood as soon as Ii becomes cold.

WASH TIDY.-A handsome tidy that
las the merit of washing well is not
often seen. One recently invented
answers TO this description: Choose
some coarse white crash; look ut 1t
carefully to see that it as evenly woven
as possible, then pull out threads until
it is barred off, and stitches may be
counted as in canvas; work a border on
each end and then begin at one corner
and work In diagonal lines, in common
cross-stltch, all over the crash. This
is to lie done with crewel, in four colOrs
red, green. yellow and black. The
ends of the crash should be fringed
before anything else is done. The tidy
may be put smoothly over a chair-back
or made so long that it can be tied in a
graceful knot in the center. This is y
pretty way also In which to ornam nt
tie crash sidebOard cover.

MARQUIsE PUDDING.-Open a two
pound can of preserved pears, drain
them from the liquid, cut them small
and run them through a sieve; add half
a pint of white sugar slrup. Cut up
two -pineapples into small slices, and
then into small dice. Add their weight
of sugar and a pint of water; simmer
half AN hour; set aside to cool. Boil
half pound of dried cherries in half
a pint of sirup and cool. Surround the
ice cream freezer with ice, put the pear
pulp In it and work it until partly
frozen; add while working the pears,
with the spatula, the well-beaten
whites of four eggs. Drain the cher
ries and the pineapple from the siruP
and add them, and when nearly frozen
put the mixture In an ice-pudding
mold. Surround 1t with ice and salt
until wanted.

TIE death rate OF Russia IS the highest
in Europe. This Is attributed to the
paucity of medical men and tie habits
of the rural population. According 10
the late returns, the average duration of
life is only tHenty-six years and the
mortality among infants Is frightful.
More than 60 per cent. of infants die
before they reach their fifth year. and
nearly 1000 GOO perish every year. OF
S,000,e boys only 3.770,000 attain the
age of military service-that is to say,
their 25th year ; and OF these at least
1,0UO,0G0 are found, by reason of

body, to be unfit for military duties.
